SA28 full size stock

[huntinsomd]

Anybody know where to find a full size stock for a SA28? I bought the compact model and I would really like a longer stock for all purpose use. I'm 6'4" so the added length of pull would be nice. I would consider a trade if anyone would be interested. My gun has the black stock and it's like new.
Thanks,
Dave

I think you sol I reached out to mossberg looking for parts for my sa28 and they responded back the guns come complete and there are no spare parts. Your Best bet would be find someone who wants to trade.

DIY a spacer. Never understood the compact craze, gun fit still matter for turks.

Slip over recoil pad would be the fastest fix and get you by

The full length LOP of a shotgun requires proper shooting form, that means you have to lean forward on the gun to get proper cheek weld. When we hunt turkeys, often we are leaning back on a tree or twisted. If you are a blind hunter, that gets to sit on a chair and lean forward on the gun, the full length LOP might suit. But for run and gunners, we need the short stock. I have a 6’-8” wingspan, and shoot 12.5” LOP on a turkey gun.

Been running and gunning for 30 plus years with a full length stock, never once wished I wanted a shorter stock. Maybe because I starting with wing shooting and am comfortable with a proper length stock?

I remember a friend getting a youth 20ga slug gun, he wanted small and light, pretty much punched himself in the nose every time he pulled the trigger.

For me, the attraction of the compact gun was mostly for the short barrel. The short length of pull could work for most turkey hunting situations, but I'd like to use the gun for rabbits and maybe waterfowl. A 14"+ length of pull is short for me, but that would work much better.

Same here. I need all the length that I can get and then some. Most are 14 1/2" and I could use up to an inch more.

Check out the Beartooth Products neoprene stock extension. On the couple which I have mounted for fiends, both wanted to use their compact shotguns for doves, after we determined the proper length, I glued the pads together w/ contact cement and taped the pad on w/ a Coban style removable tape.

I'll have to check that out.

Never heard of such. I've never hunted a blind and don't recall ever thinking shorter length of pull would help me in any way because I had my back against a tree. A shorter barrel, sure, but not a shorter length of pull. If it works for you, great, but it has no impact on the style of hunting one does.
